Processing Visual Information
It is estimated that the human brain contains 100 billion (1011) neurons averaging 1000 synapses on each; that is, some 1014 connections. How to unravel the workings of such a complex system?

Processing the mRNA Transcript
In eukaryotic cells, the newly-formed mRNA transcript (also called heterogenous nuclear RNA or hnRNA) must be further modified before it can be used.
RNA processing
Modification of RNA before it leaves the nucleus, a process unique to eukaryotes.
RNA splicing ...
Food processing
Food can be made safer and more palatable through processing. Food processing therefore has a valuable role in contributing to good nutrition. However, some nutritionists advise caution.
RNA processing Any alteration of a precursor RNA molecule, such as splicing or polyadenylation, that yields a mature RNA molecule.
Clone processing. Richard Guilfoyle [University of Wisconsin, Madison (UWM)] discussed improvements in front-end strategies and progress toward automation.
Antigen Processing
When the macrophage eats bacteria, proteins (antigens) from the bacteria are broken down into short peptide chains and those peptides are then "displayed" on the macrophage surface attached to special molecules called MHC II ...
Processing, or fixation, is necessary to convert gaseous nitrogen into forms usable by living organisms. Some fixation occurs in lightning strikes, but most fixation is done by free-living or symbiotic bacteria.
Processing a photosensitive material in order to make an image visible; the development and printing of his pictures took only two hours.

PROCESSING - With respect to proteins, generally used to refer to proteolytic post-translational modifications of a polypeptide.
Processing: The reactions occurring in the nucleus which convert the primary RNA transcript to a mature mRNA. Processing reactions include capping, splicing and polyadenylation.
Bioprocessing
- A technique in which microorganisms, living cells, or their components are used to produce a desired end product.
Bioreactor ...
An image processing method for reduction of shot noise without degradation of an image.

recycling Reprocessing of discarded materials into new, useful products; not the same as reuse of materials for their original purpose, but the terms are often used interchangeably.
red algae Seaweeds that have a predominance of red pigments.
Splicing Processing a primary transcript into a mRNA by removal of the introns. It occurs within the nucleus.
RNA processing
Using these programs to find ORFs in bacterial genomes is relatively easy. Here, the DNA sequence matches the mRNA. The situation is more complicated for eukaryotic genes, which often contain one or more noncoding regions (introns).
RNA splicing - RNA-processing step in which all of the intron sequences are removed and exon sequences are kept therebv producing a much shorter RNA molecule.

Exons -- portion of a gene included in the transcript of a gene and survives processing of the RNA in the cell nucleus to become part of a spliced messenger of a structural RNA in the cell cytoplasm; ...
This type of endoplasmic reticulum is involved mainly with the production and processing of proteins that will be exported, or secreted, from the cell.
A neural network consists of layers of processing units called nodes joined by directional links: one input layer, one output layer, and zero or more hidden layers in between.

The temporal lobe receives auditory signals, processing language and the meaning of words. The parietal lobe is associated with the sensory cortex and processes information about touch, taste, pressure, pain, and heat and cold.

In the US, the process generally takes about 2 1/2 years. The processing time depends on whether or not the examiner rejects the claim based on prior patents, and whether the new patent application has to undergo amendments.
